The Daimler V8-250, produced between 1962 and 1969, was a luxury saloon that combined British elegance with performance.

Introduced by Daimler as a more refined variant of the Jaguar Mark 2, it featured a 2.5-litre V8 engine designed by Edward Turner, known for its smoothness and spirited performance.

The 250 V8 stood out with its fluted grille, a hallmark of Daimler styling, and luxurious interiors featuring high-quality wood and leather.

It was one of the first cars to successfully pair a compact design with an eight-cylinder engine, offering a unique driving experience that was both swift and composed.
